Speedclop prompt #7: "I like to watch". Write from a voyeur's POV.
Time spent: hell if i know. Blew past 69 minutes at the 750 word mark.
I've been wanting to add continuity in these speedclop prompts for a while, and add a bit of mane 6 lovin' like in TAW's Polyamory I think i've managed to do so with Zap happens, oddly enough o.O in any case... here's chapter 2!
Twilight breathed deeply as she trotted down the path to Sweet Apple Acres. As much as she loved Ponyville’s rustic charm and distance from larger cities, she truly envied Applejack’s home. While the farm kept her friend busy, Twilight had to admit that it always seemed worth it. The wide open expanse, dotted with Apple trees almost as far as the eye could see. This was as close as you could get to nature without flinging yourself muzzle-first into the Everfree Forest, and every breath she took hammered that point home. There was no scent of the town, not at this distance. All she could smell was the dirt, the grass, the trees... and the apples. Lots and lots of apples.
She grinned as Applejack’s home came into view, her pace increasing slightly. Even a few days spent in Canterlot with the Princess and her family had made her homesick. She marvelled at how easily Ponyville had replaced the Capital as the place she wanted to be. She’d missed the town, but most importantly, she’d missed her friends.
That, and she’d missed yet another Zap Apple harvest.
The very idea of apples simply appearing on trees by magic rather than being grown absolutely fascinated her, not to mention its amazing coloration. She just knew the fruits would be a motherlode of fascinating research material, and was eager to find out all she could.
Seeing Applejack again was just a bonus!
As she trotted past the fence surrounding the farmhouse, Twilight spotted a large red shape in the distance and angled in its direction. The shape spotted her as well, pausing in its plowing to take a breath. “Howdy, miss Twilight.”
“Hello Big Macintosh!” The corners of her lips twitched upwards. “You know I’ve told you a hundred times that you can just call me Twilight.”
The big stallion just shook his head slowly. “Just the way I was brought up.”
Twilight giggled, knowing when she was defeated. She quickly changed the topic. “Say, have you seen Applejack?”
Big Macintosh nodded, turning his head towards the barn. “Eeyup. They’re taking a break in the barn.” He took a deep breath and moved forward again, the plow resuming its work.
“Okay, thanks!” Twilight said, raising her voice over the sound of the moving earth. She then headed towards the barn, smiling all the way.
Wait. ‘They’?
“So, Dashie... how’d I do on my first ‘preening’ test?”
Applejack smiled as she stood above the pegasus, pleased at her work. They were both in the loft, resting in a comfortable pile of hay. At least, Applejack was, as Dash was laying on her back, stretched out, her slightly twitching wings flared out to their utmost... and gasping for breath.
Her blue friend had stopped by earlier, floating above her head as she worked on her trees. Seeing her powerful wings at work had reminded Applejack of the previous day, and had hesitantly asked the pegasus if the offer to teach was still open. After a moment of confusion, a blush had appeared on Rainbow’s face, matching the one that Applejack knew must have been on her face. But Rainbow’s smile had been all the answer she needed, and the two had made their way towards the barn.
She’d climbed to the loft while the pegasus had flown up, and they’d both flopped into the hay, playfully nuzzling and kissing each other. The mere touches had already made her heart beat faster, and set her blood on fire, but she’d held herself back before she was too far gone. She actually had wanted to learn.
Rainbow had been an eager teacher, and extended a single wing. She’d beckoned Applejack closer, until the farmer’s muzzle was practically touching Dash’s wing, and had dipped her own head to show how a pegasus preened. Her teeth had grasped any feather that had been out of place, slowly tugging and pulling it until it aligned with the rest. She’d smoothed down any feather that looked frayed, licking them until they looked smooth and pristine.
And then, she’d licked Applejack’s nose. Applejack’s eyes had locked onto Rainbow’s own, and they’d leaned together in a passionate kiss. Their tounges had fought for dominance, but Applejack knew she’d lost as soon as Rainbow’s had snaked into her mouth, pushing Applejack’s own back. Her breath had become strained as their passion grew, and she’d felt dizzy when Rainbow had finally broken away, smirking triumphantly.
“Your turn...” She’d whispered, closing the wing she’d worked on, and extended the other out for Applejack.
Applejack had blinked, her vacant eyes focusing on the appendage before her. She’d slowly approached the proffered wing, and searched for a feather that looked out of place. She’d found one, which Rainbow described as a secondary, and had slowly, lovingly teased it back into place. The pegasus had smirked, chiding the farmer for taking so much time with the feather.
“I’m not fragile, AJ.” She’d twitched the wing closer to Applejack’s muzzle. “You can go faster than that.”
The farmer had then started moving, licking the upper margin until she had found another off-kilter feather. She’d grabbed it in her teeth, and had tugged it back and forth to match its companions. She’d glanced at Rainbow’s face, and had been rewarded with a nod. She’d been on the right track. Rainbow’s eyes had then closed as Applejack had begun smoothing down the feathers, her tongue caressing them in slow, languishing licks.
Of course, once Applejack had reached the rest of Rainbow’s body, she couldn’t help but direct her tongue lower and lower, and had enjoyed hearing Rainbow’s increasingly labored breathing as she’d gotten closer to the pegasus’ hidden folds.
And then, she’d made Dash sing.
“B...B plus.” Rainbow now glanced up at the farmer, grinning slyly.
“B plus?” Applejack stared in disbelief. “That’s it? What’d I do wrong?”
Rainbow shook her head, her grin now a full blown smirk as she caught her breath. “Nothing.”
“Nothin’? Then why?”
“If I gave you a perfect score, I wouldn’t have to teach you again!” Rainbow lept at Applejack, tackling her into the hay. “My turn now...” She leaned in, her muzzle getting closer to the farmer’s, until...
“Applejack? Are you in there? I thought I heard yelling!”
Twilight?
The pair stared at each other, unsure whether they should answer or not. A knock startled them out of their confusion, as they scrambled back to the ground, and revealed a smiling unicorn as they opened the door.
Twilight beamed once she spotted her friend. “There you are, Applejack! And, uh. Dash. Hi?” Applejack gulped as she watched Twilight eye the pegasus, then herself. “What have you two been doing?”
Their manes were disheveled, and full of hay. Their coats weren’t in much better condition, and their faces were red. It was really quite obvious
“Um. Wrestling?” Rainbow offered, her grin tremulous at best.
Thankfully, what was obvious to most often escaped the studious unicorn’s attention. She rolled her eyes at the pair, shaking her head. “Honestly. Don’t you two ever stop?”
Rainbow laughed, shaking her head as she nudged the farmer. “Not any time soon!”
Applejack breathed a sigh of relief. They were still safe. Not that she wanted to hide anything, especially from her closest friends, but... some things needed time to explain.
“So, Twi! What brings you ‘round these parts?” She asked, waving the unicorn into the barn.
“Zap Apples.”
Applejack chortled, remembering Twilight’s first taste the previous year. “Taken a likin’ to the jam, eh?”
“No!” Twilight replied, shaking her head. “Well, yes. But no, I was thinking about the apples themselves. I want to study them.”
“Study them? Why?” Applejack stepped back as Twilight practically leapt at her.
“Why? Are you kidding? Those things are like raw magic!” She pointed at the door, towards the trees. “They don’t grow, they appear by magic! Honestly, who knows what these things can do?”
“Oh, that’s easy. We already know what they do.”
Twilight’s head spun towards Rainbow, who had just spoken. Applejack’s spun just as quickly, her eyes widening in horror as she frantically shook her head at the pegasus. Unfortunately, the wrong pony noticed the movement first.
“You do?” Twilight asked, taking notice of Applejack’s reaction. “What are you hiding?”
“N-nothin’.” Applejack felt her mouth scrunch as the lie left her lips. She knew she was a terrible liar, but... this was just too embarassing.
“Here, let me show you!”
Applejack stared in horror as Rainbow trotted over to a basket of apples in the corner. Applejack had carried them into the barn while she took a break, and it was filled to the brim with the magical fruits. Before she could kick her brain back into gear to tell the pegasus to stop, Rainbow had lifted an apple with a wing, and had bitten into it, chewing eagerly.
“Hey, these aren’t so bad!” Rainbow tore into the fruit, quickly finishing it off. She grabbed another apple, and made quick work of it too.
It was only by the third apple that her expression changed, her face taking on a green tinge. “Oogh. Okay, maybe not so good either. Huurk!” She gagged, her face becoming greener by the second. “...I think I’m gonna lie down.” She said, then awkwardly plopped herself into the closest pile of hay.
The two other ponies stared in disbelief, one not understanding what had just happened, the other not believing, and had placed an orange hoof to her face. Applejack glanced up as Twilight addressed her.
“Um. What was that supposed to do?”
Applejack blushed as she remembered just what was supposed to happen. Which would happen to Dash sooner or later, and she’d be bound to show it off when it did. There was no more point in hiding it. “Well, uh... it kinda changes you.”
“Changes?”
“Y-yeah.”
“That doesn’t really help at all, Applejack. What do you mean, ‘change’?”
Applejack silently cursed Twilight’s inquisitive mind. “Uh.. oh ponyfeathers. To hay with it!” The growl left her throat as she threw a glare at Dash, then focused back on Twilight. “It turned me into a guy, okay?”
“It.. what?”
“I ate one yesterday, and it turned me into a darned stallion!”
“You’re kidding, right?” Twilight asked, her eyes wide. Before she could ask another question, a flash of light filled the barn, blinding the pair. They covered their eyes, shielding them until their vision returned, and something blue came into focus.
“Aww yeah!”
Applejack could only stare, her mouth open.
As a mare, Rainbow Dash was undeniably good looking. Shockingly so, in fact, a point which Applejack knew drove Rarity mad. The fashionista turned heads, but Rainbow Dash turned just as many, if not more, with what looked like no effort at all. Her vibrant coloring, from the tip of her tail to her magenta eyes, only served to draw every eye to her, and her toned, sleek body kept those eyes on her. Applejack was likely biased, but she thought of Rainbow as the best looking mare she’d ever seen.
As a stallion...
Applejack thought she might have trouble breathing. Both from her increased rate of breathing, and the likelihood that she’d soon be drowning in a puddle of drool and... other fluids.
Rainbow Dash was a hunk. He still had the graceful, sleek shape of a pegasus, but had bulked up considerably. He was taller, easily towering over either mare. The toned muscles were now prominent, rippling under his coat as he moved about, admiring his new physique. Applejack’s eyes followed his rump as he turned around on himself, trying to get the best view he could.
As far as she was concerned, the view was awesome. “Oh... my.”
“I’ll say!” Twilight blurted, drawing Applejack’s attention. She’d completely forgotten that the unicorn was there, and narrowed her eyes at Twilight’s eager expression. Was she...? “This is amazing! You’re so much bigger... this completely bypassed the laws of physics!”
Applejack let out the breath she hadn’t realized she’d been holding in. Just Twi being Twi. She chuckled as Twilight started mumbling about various theories that could explain the transformation. As Applejack’s eyes focused back on Dash, the unicorn’s voice faded from her consciousness. All she was aware of was Dash, as he moved about and answered Twilight’s questions. The conversation flowed past her like a river, until she heard something that made her ears and tail twitch.
“So, does it work?”
“Huh?” Rainbow stopped admiring himself as he focused on Twilight. “What does?”
“That.” She blushed, pointing between his rear legs. “Your new... equipment.”
Rainbow snickered, glancing at the earth pony in the barn. “Well, it certainly worked for Applejack yesterday.” He then grinned at Twilight. “Why, you wanna test it out, egghead?” He winked, sliding closer to the purple mare until Applejack found her body throwing itself between the two.
“I-I VOLUNTEER!”
...what the hay did I just say?
Twilight saw the shocked expression on Applejack and Rainbow’s faces, which she knew must be mirrored on her own. It looked that no one quite understood what Applejack had just said. Or if they had, they didn’t believe it.
Twilight cleared her throat. “You... volunteer? For what, exactly?” She waited for Applejack to answer, but to no avail. All the farmer could do was blush, her face so red it rivaled Big Macintosh’s coat, until a loud smack was heard. Applejack jumped, squeaking in fright, and whirled to face Rainbow.
The pegasus had a big grin on his face, a hoof still at the level of Applejack’s haunches, and he was staring intently at the farmer’s face. Twilight watched as the earth pony’s anger simply melted away as she stared into Rainbow’s eyes.
Are those two...? Twilight could hardly believe her eyes. When they’d told her that they’d been wrestling, she’d given them the benefit of the doubt. After all, the pair often did get rather physical, no matter what they did. But she’d caught a whiff of a scent, one that any grown mare would recognize. It had been the merest whiff, so she’d dismissed the idea.
Now, however? It was coming off of Applejack in waves, as the pair stared at- no, scratch that. They were now kissing, and rather forcefully too. Both had their eyes closed, they lips locked together. I guess they are, she grinned, realizing she now owed Rarity fifty bits.
Applejack let out a throaty moan, as Rainbow leaned into the farmer, deepening their embrace. Twilight blushed, and started inching backwards, eager to let the lovers have some time alone. But Rainbow had opened an eye, and was staring right at her. Unable to speak, he was simply winking at her, clearly trying to tell her something. He moved his free hoof, and pointed to the ground.
Twilight tilted her head, unsure what the pegasus was trying to communicate. She lifted a hoof to the door, clearly demonstrating her intent to leave. However, Rainbow only repeated the motion, even more forcefully than before, enough to draw attention from the mare in his embrace.
Applejack broke away, her eyes half lidded, looking completely dazed from the kiss. “Dash, what’re yoummph!” Rainbow silenced her as their lips met once more, but not before he’d looked straight at Twilight, and mouthed a few words.
Stay and watch.
And for some reason, she did. Her mind told her to leave. Manners and decency dictated she should let the pair enjoy each other’s company. Her upbringing had taught her to not pry.
But the heat between her own haunches compelled her to stay right where she was. She blamed the scent in the air. She blamed Rainbow’s eyes, which had locked her in place. But mostly, she blamed her ever present curiosity. She’d wanted to know the effects of the Zap Apple? Well, she was getting an eyeful right now.
And that eyeful was growing between Rainbow’s legs.
It was big. Not huge or gigantic like some of her carefully hidden magazines liked to show, but it was certainly imposing. It was a mottled pink color, with darker patches across the skin, and it seemed to grow larger as the kiss deepened. As it came in contact with Applejack’s coat, the orange mare lifted a hoof to touch it. She caressed the throbbing erection, eliciting a groan from the stallion. “Oh Celestia...”
Applejack let out a throaty laugh as she continued to move her hoof across the sensitive skin. “Celestia ain’t here, Dash. Just me.”
And me. Twilight watched as Applejack drew away from her lover, swaying her hips as she slowly trotted towards one of the barn’s support beams. Dash came between the pair, his outstretched wings obscuring Applejack from Twilight’s view... and she from Applejack’s.
All she could hear was Applejack’s voice. A deep, throaty growl filled with lust. “Just c’mere and rut me, big boy...”
Rainbow was more than eager to please. He approached the orange mare and reared up, lifting his hooves over Applejack’s. She leaned back into him, planting a kiss on his neck as he shifted his hips.
And then, he entered her.
Twilight gaped, her eyes wide. There was no foreplay here, just the raw, animalistic lust that she could practically feel emanating from the pair. She quickly lit her horn as Applejack’s cry grew in volume, growing louder as Rainbow pressed deeper and deeper into her passage. Twilight knew that Big Macintosh was still out in the fields, and hoped she’d cast her noise cancelling bubble quickly enough. The last thing they wanted was to be interrupted by Applejack’s big brother.
Within the bubble, however, Applejack was screaming herself raw. Every time Rainbow pulled out, it was a gasping intake of breath. Every time he plunged into her, right to the hilt, surely bottoming into Applejack, she let out a scream of ecstatic pleasure that reverberated around the bubble.
Twilight blinked at the amount of detail she was seeing, and realized she’d somehow gotten close to the pair without taking notice, or being noticed. She was bending down, right under Rainbow’s haunches, almost within touching distance.
She could see everything. The texture of Rainbow’s member, and the swinging balls slapping against the soft flesh. Applejack’s protruding nub, and the fluids just dripping from her. Twilight felt a drop splash onto her muzzle, her body having again moved even closer. She licked at herself, savoring the combined taste of her friends. She’d crossed the border to voyeurism so long ago, it was just a distant memory. Now, she was crossing the next.
Active participation.
Her head swimming with the scent and taste, and noise of the lovemaking in front of her, she leaned up, inching closer to the place where the two ponies were joined together, her tongue stretched out in anticipation. Closer, and closer, until her tongue came in contact with Applejack’s most sensitive part.
The farmer went crazy. Her screams practically doubled in volume, as her entire body shook with pleasure. Even Dash was screaming now, his cries filled with an odd mix of pain and ecstasy, as Twilight helped him over the edge as well.
Or rather, Twilight’s horn.
She’d never been taught any details of lovemaking, of what to watch out for. Her education had mostly been based on what she learned from her books and the Princess. Bedroom activities had never come up, nor had she focused (much) on the subject while growing up. Hence, no one had told her that unicorns needed to pay attention, lest their horn end up somewhere it wasn’t supposed to be.
Such as, for example, right into Rainbow’s anus.
He exploded into Applejack, his member throbbing as each pulse of his seed flew into her, filling the mare until dripped out of her, splashing onto Twilight’s face before she moved away, her horn slipping out of the stallion. He moaned at the sensation, shaking as he continued to unload himself into Applejack until the pair collapsed into a groaning pile on the ground.
Eventually, Rainbow seemed to catch his breath. “Owwww. Really, Twilight?”
“I’m sorry!” She backed away, putting some distance between her and the stallion she’d so rudely impaled.
“Right in my-”
“I’m sorry!” Her ears couldn’t droop lower.
“Felt kinda good, weird though...”
“I’m sorr-wait, what?” Whaaaat?
Twilight stared as the pegasus laughed at her. “Gotcha!” He then turned his head back to Applejack, licking the ear flicking next to his muzzle, earning a happy sigh.
As the orange mare came to, she lifted her head and stared at her unicorn friend. She frowned, her eyes narrowing slightly. “You’re a sneaky one, Twi’.”
Twilight giggled, relief flooding through her. She was scared that Applejack would react badly to her continued presence, and her participation. Thankfully, her fears seemed to be unfounded. “Blame Rainbow, she told me to stay!”
Applejack grunted, glaring at the pegasus. “Oh really?” She then flicked her eyes back to Twilight. “Did she tell you to lick me?”
“Well, uh. I-I... um.” Oh dear.
“Y’want a turn, sugarcube?”
What. “What?”
Rainbow was just as confused. “Huh?”
“Dash is still rarin’ to go, believe me.” She flexed her legs, earning a groan from Dash as she squeezed him. “And honey, I can smell you from here.”
Oh. Right. She was still burning down there, eager, moist... dripping, even. “Are-are you sure?” She hesitated, her eyes bouncing back and forth between the two. “I’ve seen how you look at each other. I can tell.”
Applejack stared at Twilight again, and stood up. She visibly shuddered as Rainbow slipped out of her, his erection still prominent. The farmer made her way to Twilight on shaky hooves, and threw one across Twilight’s withers. “That’s why I love ya, Twi. Thanks for seeing that. And for askin’.”
“N-no problem.” Twilight smiled, until Applejack’s grip grew slightly tighter.
“I’m just makin’ things clear first. Rainbow is mine.” She stared into Twilight’s eyes, burning her words into the unicorn’s brain. “But I don’t mind sharin’.”
The pegasus lay on his stomach, his legs curled up under him. “Hey! Don’t I get a say in this?”
“You complaining, sugarcube?”
“Uh. Well, no...”
“Thought not.” Applejack smirked, and turned back to Twilight. “So, how about round two?”
The very air seemed to hum with power, shimmering in the late afternoon sun as the trees in Sweet Apple Acres bore their most prized fruit: The Zap Apple. The magic found within them was strong, suffused with the energy of the Everfree forest, even after all these years since Ponyville’s founding. Had a certain purple unicorn been present, she would have begged for a few samples, eager to study just how powerful the fruit were.
Alas, she was currently in Canterlot, far away from the Acres’ bestselling product. Instead, two other ponies were present at the farm, discussing the magic of one of the fruits in question. A sky blue pegasus was perched in a tree, a Zap Apple balanced on one hoof. Below her, an orange earth pony stood on the ground, her head lifted towards her companion.
Actually, they weren’t discussing about the magic at all. For that matter, they weren’t even discussing. They were arguing.
“Rainbow Dash, put that down!”
The pegasus paused in mid-motion, eyeing the tantalizingly close apple. Just a bit more and she’d take a bite out of that multicolored fruit...
“Rainbow!”
Rainbow sighed, glaring at the orange earth pony below her. With the number of apples that the family harvested, you’d think that sparing a single one shouldn’t have been an issue. Clearly, this wasn’t the case. “What?” she grumbled, glaring at her friend. “I’m hungry!”
“You can’t eat those!” Applejack replied from below, matching Rainbow’s glare with one of her own.
“And why not?”
“Y’just can’t!”
Rainbow’s frown deepened. She hadn’t known Applejack to be a greedy pony, but... “Look, I’ll give you money for it later!”
Applejack’s glare became fiercer, her eyes betraying what looked like a touch of hurt, and anger. “It ain’t about money!”
“It’s not?” The now thoroughly confused Rainbow repeated. “What the hay is this about then?” She asked, lifting the chromatic apple high.
Applejack rolled her eyes at her friend, realizing once again just how stubborn the pegasus was. “Granny taught us never to eat any of those apples-.”
“Okay, now you’re just pulling my leg! What’s with all the jam?”
“-raw, Rainbow. Y’can’t eat them raw.”
Blinking in continued confusion, Rainbow’s eyes flicked between the apple in her hooves and the farmpony below her.
“...Why not?”
“Eh?”
“Why can’t you eat them Raw?” Rainbow asked. After all, nothing with awesome coloring that matched her own could be bad.
Applejack lifted a hoof, and looked away before responding. “Because!” Rainbow’s eyes narrowed at the evasive response.
“You don’t know why, don’t you?” She asked, her lips forming into a smirk.
Applejack’s glare turned itself once more on Rainbow. “She told me not to, and that’s that! Unlike someponies, I listened to my elders!”
Rainbow shrugged the verbal jab away, her smirk ever wider. No, she knew the real reason... “Yeah, right. You’re just scared.”
“Sca-” Applejack sputtered in complete disbelief. “Like hay I am!”
Rainbow’s smile grew ever wider. “I never thought I’d see the day! Applejack scared of an apple!” A dash of inspiration hit her, and she dramatically lifted a hoof to her forehead. “Sweet Apple Acres is doomed!” Damn. Rarity would be proud.
Rainbow was so busy mentally patting herself on the back, she didn’t notice the lasso coming up at her until it was too late. The next thing she knew, she found her face in the dirt, groaning at the stetson wearing pony that stood above her.
“I ain’t scared! And I’m gonna prove it!”
“...How?” Rainbow asked as she got back on her hooves and untied the rope around her. She then watched Applejack turn away, bend down, and once more face the pegasus.
“L’ke th’s!” Applejack replied, the Zap Apple in her mouth muffling her words. Then, with one almighty bite, she tore off a large chunk of the chromatic fruit. She chewed vigorously, and swallowed.
The pair stared at each other, waiting for something to happen. And waited.
“...So how does it taste?”
Applejack’s brows furrowed in thought. “Like... I just ate every other apple.”
“That sounds... really boring.” Rainbow stated, disappointed.
“No, I mean... it’s like every other apple, at the same time, all at once.” Applejack continued, her face turning slightly green. “And I think I’m gonna be sick.”
The desire to eat the apple now completely quashed and forgotten, Rainbow rushed to Applejack’s side, letting the earth pony lean against her as the farmer was overcome by a wave of dizziness. “AJ! You okay?”
Applejack nodded slowly, her body shuddering against Rainbow’s. “I’m okay... I think I just need to lie down.”
Rainbow smiled in relief. “Sure... let’s get you to bed, AJ.”
Applejack gratefully let Rainbow carry more of her weight as the pair slowly advanced towards the barn, keeping her eyes closed as they walked. She focused on breathing normally, the rhythm helping to keep her queasy stomach at bay. She was even more thankful that Granny Smith wasn’t in the house, or the elder mare would have given her an earful, and she just didn’t feel up to it. The stairs were a momentary challenge, which Rainbow overcame by gently heaving the earth pony onto her back. The swaying motion brought Applejack dangerously close to retching, but she figured it was better than trying to take those steps one by one.
Eventually, she found herself in her bed, tucked under the covers as Rainbow watched over her. Applejack’s eyes focused on her friends face, seeing the worry and guilt painted all over it. “What’s wrong, sugarcube?”
Rainbow flinched at the question, looking down at the ground. “Sorry...” she mumbled, her voice barely audible.
“For what?” Applejack asked, yawning.
“It’s my fault!” Rainbow cried out, her hoof waving at Applejack. “I made you eat it!”
The orange pony yawned again as she considered Rainbow’s words. “You’re right, it is your fault.” She said, smirking as she saw the pegasus flinch. “But I know how you can make it up to me.”
Rainbow’s demeanor brightened immediately, her eyes shining as she beamed at Applejack. “How?”
Applejack fought to keep her grin from spreading too widely. “Do me two favors, Dash.”
“Two?!”
She glared at the pegasus who wilted under her gaze. “Two. Your fault I’m sick.”
“... Fine.” Rainbow grumbled, scowling as she looked away.
“One, y’can go tell Big Mac that I’m sick and am in bed.”
“Sweet, this is easy stuff--”
“And two, help him with the rest of the Zap Apple harvest.”
“... aw, horseapples.”
Rainbow yawned as she glided through the air, still half asleep. Even breakfast and a quick warm shower had not helped much, as she still felt exhausted from the previous day’s workload.
Applejack’s second favor, unlike the first, had taken the rest of the afternoon and had even dragged on past sunset. With her help, Big Macintosh had gotten the rest of the Zap Apples from their trees, but it had been a long and tedious workout, working muscles that weren’t used to so many hours of abuse. Her poor wings fared no better, as she’d flown for most of that time to grab the stubborn fruit that refused to be knocked off the trees.
She’d managed to convince herself that the whole thing was time well spent, a good strength workout that would only benefit her in the long run.
On the other hoof, she’d slept half the day away, and was aching all over. Even after that shower, she didn’t feel up for much more than gliding until the edge of the pain wore off. In the meantime, she’d visit Applejack. After all, it was the farmer’s fault she was so sore today. Even if Rainbow was also the cause of Applejack roping her into the work, but that was a minor detail she cheerfully overlooked.
What she couldn’t overlook was the fact that, due to her taunting, her best friend had gotten sick, and missed out on her work. She knew Applejack, and knew that being unable to help out on the farm must have felt just as bad as getting sick in the first place. Even past Rainbow’s aching and sore muscles, she knew the first thing to do that morning--or afternoon, as it so happened-- was to check on Applejack.
As Rainbow flew towards the farmhouse, a splash of color caught her eye. There, in the middle of all the green, brown, and red, she saw orange. She grinned, happy to see her friend already out of bed. “Hey Applejack!” she yelled, expecting the familiar face to look.
While Applejack did indeed look up, she only did so after nearly jumping out of her skin, and then surprised Rainbow even more by leaping away to hide behind one of the biggest trees, leaving only a yellow tail peeking out.
The pegasus let herself drop out of the sky, landing where Applejack had stood moments before. “Applejack?” she called out, not understanding what was going on. Rainbow frowned as she was replied to with silence. “AJ, I know you’re behind that tree. What the hay are you playing at?”
“I’m not playin’!” A voice replied, deeper than Rainbow had ever heard it, but with the familiar southern twang.
Rainbow trotted around the tree to get a glimpse of the other pony, frowning as the momentary glimpse of a stetson hat disappeared as Applejack moved to stay hidden. “What’s wrong with your voice?” Rainbow asked, still walking around the tree.
“I-I’m still sick!” Applejack stuttered, her voice betraying a hint of fear. “Nothin’ else is happenin’!
Rainbow blinked at the reply, then narrowed her eyes in suspicion. “Then why are you out of bed? C’mon, why aren’t you letting me see you!” She put on a little more speed, still trying to catch up to the other pony.
“‘Cause it’s... uh... contagious!” By now the pair were full out galloping around the tree, and Applejack was starting to sound desperate. All Rainbow could see was the tip of the yellow tail, but she couldn’t get closer. Thinking quickly, she spun around, intent on tackling the other pony as they kept running.
This turned out to be quite the bad idea, she reflected a few seconds later, as she found herself on her back, staring at the sky, feeling like she’d been hit by a train.
Okay... step one, turn around to surprise AJ - Check.
Step two, tackle AJ to stop her. - Not check.
She heard a voice call her through the haze. “Rainbow! I’m sorry! Are you okay?”
Rainbow lifted a hoof to shield her eyes from the sun, blinking as a stetson wearing shadow loomed over her. “I’m good... what the hay... did I... hit...?”
Looking down at her was, for lack of a better word, a stallion. An orange stallion, freckles on his cheeks. A hat covering a blonde mane. And the same green eyes she knew so well.
“Rainbow?”
Her ringing head forgotten, Rainbow clambered to her hooves and jumped away from the stallion. “Who are you! What have you done with Applejack?!” She yelled, stomping a hoof to the ground.
The stallion snorted. "Did that little tumble scatter your brains? I'm Applejack."
"Oh, no. You're not fooling me -that- easy!"
"Dash, I told you there was a reason we don't go eating those blasted things raw!" The stallion growled, glaring at the pegasus. “I guess this is why!”
Rainbow blinked. She had been alone with Applejack when the farmer had told her that. That meant... “Applejack?”
The orange stallion grunted as he nodded. “I just said I was, didn’t I?”
Rainbow’s mouth hung open, as she took in the sight before her. Her first instinct was to laugh at the situation, and honestly, she was close to doing so. But shock still dominated her thoughts. Applejack was a stallion. Applejack. Was a stallion.
She--he--stood tall. Taller than Dash by quite a bit, though not as tall as Big Macintosh. In fact, the more she looked, the more Dash realized that she was looking at a toned down version of Big Macintosh. Applejack’s usual muscle was far more pronounced as a stallion, with a large barrel, powerful leg muscles and an awesome, apple adorned flank.
Rainbow pushed that thought firmly out of her head, focusing instead on Applejack’s. The eyes she’d know anywhere. That same golden yellow hair. The eyelashes were gone though. And the jaw was blockier... more angular.
She briefly took flight, watching as Applejack kept his eyes on her. She quickly landed on his back, amazed at how broad it was, and how easily he was taking her weight. She knew that she was light, as was any pegasus, but as a mare, Applejack still buckled under Rainbow’s weight.
But for this Applejack? Rainbow might have just been a pillow, for all the movement he made. Or lack thereof. She started poking and prodding his back, feeling the solid musculature beneath his coat.
“Dash? what’re you doin’?” Applejack asked, only moving his head to track the mare as she moved about on him.
“Just checking you out!” Rainbow replied, before realising just what she’d said. “Err... checking the changes, I mean.”
Applejack grinned, not missing a beat. “Oh? Like what you see?”
Rainbow felt heat rising to her cheeks, turning her head towards his rear to hide her blush. “It-it’s pretty cool, I guess.” Facing his flanks, she saw the opportunity to get back at him. She poked closer and closer to his tail, and gave his flank a light smack.
“H-hey! Rainbow, quit that!” Applejack said, having jumped slightly upon being smacked. Rainbow grinned, unaware of the stallion’s consternation, and continue to rub along Applejack’s flank, her hoof getting ever closer to his cutie mark...
Suddenly, she squeaked loudly, her face turning redder than the apples around her. She turned her head, mortified, and stared at the stallion with her tail in his mouth. She wasn’t unaccustomed to this; Applejack had often bitten her tail to stop Rainbow from rushing off. But those had been small tugs.
This... had been something different. She’d been pulled, the stallion’s jaws having nipped her tail and given it a strong yank. She’d felt it course through her like a bolt of lightning. Not pain, but... something else. Something deeper.
As their eyes met, Applejack let go, spitting Rainbow’s tail out of his mouth. She quickly jumped off, her face still burning. “S-so!” she started, desperate to change the subject. “Why’d you run away?”
Applejack frowned and looked away. “I didn’t want anypony to see me like this.”
Rainbow choked back a laugh. “So your first thought was to hide behind a tree?”
Applejack blushed, pulling his hat over his eyes in an attempt to hide his face. “Sh-shut up. Y’startled me!” He glared at the pegasus, who had fallen onto the grass, unable to contain her laughter. “Yeah yeah, laugh it up...” he muttered sullenly, turning back towards the apple trees.
Rainbow’s laughter died down to a chortle as she noticed Applejack’s departure, and quickly stood up to follow him. “Sorry.” She grinned, looking up at his face. “You gotta admit it’s pretty funny.” Her smirk faded as Applejack kept his gaze straight, ignoring the mare next to him as he continued his applebucking routine. “Aaaanyway.” Rainbow continued, trying to keep the conversation going. “How’d your family take this?”
Applejack grunted at the absolutely tiny shift in topic, and sighed in defeat. It would be more effort to try to ignore Rainbow. “Applebloom kept yelling about ‘having a new brother’. Big Mac’s jaw fell to the floor.” Applejack grinned. “Which was actually pretty funny. Until Granny started smacking me with a laddle.” He glared as he heard a snort from the pony next to him, but Rainbow had schooled her face into an emotionless mask. Which was mostly ruined by her quirking lip, fighting to hold back a smile.
Thankfully, the pegasus managed to hold her laughter in. “How’d it happen anyway?” Rainbow asked.
“How’d what happen?”
“This!” Rainbow replied, prodding Applejack’s side for emphasis.
“Like I know! I just woke up this mornin’ and I was like this!” Sighing, Applejack came to a stop and turned to face Rainbow. “Look, RD. I appreciate you comin’ by to check on me. But I’m fine, even if I look like this!” He said, rolling his eyes. “I gotta get back to work.”
“Aw come on!” Rainbow pouted, rearing onto her hind legs and placing her hooves on Applejack’s shoulders. “We were supposed to hang out yesterday!”
The stallion raised his eyebrow. “Do I need to remind you who’s to blame for that not happening?” He asked, smirking as Rainbow’s ears drooped.
“Oh... Right...” The mare mumbled, dropping back to all fours. She looked at the ground dejectedly until she felt a large, strong hoof on her withers. She looked up, ignoring the faint burning she felt on her cheeks.
“Tell you what, Dash.” The stallion said as he pulled the mare in a one armed hug. “If you help out again today, we can play around later. What d’ya say?”
The prospect of more hard work almost made Rainbow groan. But on the other hoof, that meant more time spent with Applejack. Which right now sounded like a really, really good idea. Playing around sounds... good,she thought, her cheeks still burning. She spat onto a hoof, and lifted it towards Applejack. “Deal!”
Grinning, the stallion mirrored her action with his own, much larger hoof. “Deal.”
“So, girls!” Pinkie cheered, bouncing on the pillow she sat on. “Let’s talk about boys!”
“Aw man, really Pinkie?” Rainbow grumbled, crossing her forelegs against her chest. “We’re gonna talk about mushy stuff?”
“They’re not always mushy!” Pinkie countered, grinning slyly at the pegasus. “Sometimes they get quite hard!”
Twin jets of punch were spat out of Applejack and Rarity’s mouths as they both struggled to berate their friend. “Pinkie!!”
“That’s not an appropriate subject!” The white unicorn objected, levitating a cloth to wipe away the mess that had been created.
“Darn tootin’!” Applejack added, a hint of color on her face. “I was trying to drink here!”
The pink pony giggles drowned out their protests as she waved a hoof at them. “I’m kidding, sillies! Ooh, how about what you like about boys?”
“Do we really have to, Pinkie?” Rainbow asked, hoping to avoid what she figured couldn’t be anything other than a boring subject.
Twilight nodded, making a note of the subject on one of her checklists. “Well, it is her turn to decide the topic, Rainbow.”
“Fine...”
As the rush of the Zap Apple harvest was over, the pace of work was thankfully more relaxed. Applejack put Dash’s wings to good use, asking her to get the numerous baskets from the barn, instructing her to place them under the trees.
After the first trip ended in disaster, she paced herself by carrying two baskets at a time, rather than the near dozen she had attempted at first. Applejack had dragged her out from under the pile that had landed on top of her, his eyes crinkling in amusement as he nudged her back towards the barn with a foreleg. He wouldn’t let her live this down any time soon.
Eager to wipe that black mark off her record, she took off to fetch more baskets. Quick as a flash, she flew back and forth, while Applejack lined the containers up in the correct position for applebucking.
“Pinkie, what do you mean by ‘what you like about boys’?” Twilight asked. “That’s rather vague.”
“Oh, you know!”
“Actually, I don’t, or I wouldn’t be asking. Seriously, what do you want us to say!”
“Stuff! Like... what do you want! Or what you think is nice about them! Or why you want to take them home! Or what about them makes you feel nice! Or-”
“Pinkie, dear.” Rarity interrupted, having an idea now of what the pink pony meant. “Do you mean... what we look for in a stallion? Romantically?”
“Yes!”
Next, Applejack lined up next to the first tree, and gave it a swift, hard buck with all of the strength in his legs. Seconds later, both of them stared in shock as the tree’s roots were torn out of the earth, leaving the entire thing flat on the ground.
Fifteen minutes later, after much panting, groaning, and lots of rope, the tree stood back upright. He smiled gratefully at Rainbow, who then took it upon herself to buck another row of trees, making up for time lost fixing the tree, and the time lost laughing at her as she once again managed to tangle herself up with the rope, somehow hanging off of the same tree they’d just righted. Rainbow felt like a turkey as Applejack stared at her contemplatively before pulling her down, his hooves lingering where the rope had been.
As they returned to the trees, Applejack now understood why Big Macintosh bucked them with a single hoof, taking a leaf out of Big Macintosh’s book and moderated his strength. Soon, Applejack was a few trees ahead of Rainbow, having apparently found his rhythm and gotten a bit more used to his newfound increased strength. She kept sneaking a few glances his way, watching the legs bend, the muscles ripple, the tail flick around and oh Celestia what am I doing. She shook her head to clear the distracting imagery and growled as she took to the air, going directly for the branches to shake down the apples.
As she caught up to Applejack, the stallion noticed the cocky grin on the pegasus’ face, and gave one of his own. Soon, the pair were neck and neck, glances thrown back and forth as they tried to get the upper hoof on the other as their pace increased.
The rest of the group ooh’d in comprehension as Rarity nodded. “Well. You’ve heard me talk of it before. Gallant, regal, well mannered...”
Twilight giggled at Rarity’s description. “So the same thing that you were looking for at the Gala?”
The fashionista glared at Twilight. “Well then, how about you? What catches your eye?”
Twilight’s eyes widened at being put on the spot, gulping as she tried to think. “I.. I don’t know. Smart, I guess? Handsome, kind, good with foals...”
Rainbow snorted as Twilight went on. “So, everything in ‘the egghead’s guide to a nice stallion’?”
Before they could say lickety split, both rows of trees stood empty. The baskets were filled to the brim with apples, and the pair started carrying them back to the cellar. Their competitiveness shone through once more, as they began racing each other back and forth.
Rainbow’s speed gave her an early advantage, but the stallion quickly caught up, carrying twice the load the mare could. The job was over in short order, leaving the victorious Applejack grinning at the glowering pegasus.
“That’s the last of the chores.” Applejack said with satisfaction as he ruffled Rainbow’s mane. “So, whaddya want to do, Dash?”
She skipped away from his hoof, sticking her tongue out before grinning. Since she’d seen him, since she’d ran face-first into his wall of muscle, she knew she wanted to test him out. And she knew just what to start with. “Hoof-wrestle!”
“Well then, what about you, Rainbow?”
“Eh.” Rainbow waved a hoof, her muzzle turned upwards disdainfully. “No time for that. I’m too busy!”
“Oh yeah, I’m sure all that nappin’ and dozin’ takes up all your time.” Applejack chortled, winking at the pegasus.
“I meant practicing!” Rainbow retorted, glaring at the farmer. “Let’s hear what you think then!”
Applejack shrugged, keeping her eyes locked on Rainbow’s. “That’s easy. Loyal, strong, chases after their dreams...”
Rainbow blinked in surprise. That sounded a bit too familiar. She shook the thought away as Applejack kept talking. The farmer was now looking at the rest of the group as she counted off the various traits.
“Honest, dependable, a good work ethic...”
Rainbow found herself nodding along to Applejack’s words. It was true; she spent too much time practicing--and admittedly napping-- and hanging out with her friends to spend any time with colts. That didn’t mean that she never thought about them.
The more she thought about it, the more she realized she agreed with Applejack. She wanted an honest pony, one who wouldn’t waste her time with lies. A dependable pony, one that would have her back in case of need. And even though her friends might argue the point, a good work ethic was important. She was proud of her work, and of the efforts she put into becoming a Wonderbolt.
“So you want a stallion just like yourself?” Twilight asked, her voice breaking through Rainbow’s thoughts. The pegasus’ eyes widened, glancing at Applejack. The farmer chuckled at Twilight’s question, a wry smile on her face.
“Guess so!”
Rainbow felt a lump in her throat. Was what she was looking for really that close?
As it turned out, Applejack was now ridiculously strong. Rainbow knew that the farmer’s hind legs had been strong as a mare; if winning those sections of the iron pony competition hadn’t proven that, stopping that out of control carriage as Mare Do Well certainly had. But the hoof-wrestle victory had gone to Rainbow during the competition, to the point where she’d even knocked Applejack over.
This time, the orange hoof hadn’t budged. Not until Rainbow had strained to the utmost, even starting to flap her wings to push harder. Then, it had slowly tilted, until it hit the top of the tree stump they’d used as a table. Rainbow had let out a wheezing cheer, but narrowed her eyes as she watched Applejack smile to himself. He looked pleased with himself. Not smug, but like he knew something she didn’t. Did he just...?
Once Rainbow caught her breath, the next challenge was thrown down: A race. To the edge of the Everfree forest and back. They shot off from the starting line together, keeping pace with each other for the first few minutes. But slowly, Rainbow Dash inched ahead, the orange speck in the corner of her eye disappearing. She grinned as she surged forward, leaving Applejack behind. This was going to be so easy.
So why did she feel that tiny tingle upon her flank, the one that she felt an instant before a lightning bolt would burn through the patch of sky she hung in, or before Pinkie Pie pounced. The tiny burn behind her that whispered "Watch out", but without warning her for what? The feeling that put her on edge and had saved her skin a thousand times?
The feeling that told her to look behind her right this instant?
She turned her head, expecting just about anything. Timberwolves. An Ursa Minor. Heck, even Nightmare Moon or Discord. What she hadn’t expected was Applejack running close behind, staring at her.
Well. Not exactly at her. He was staring at her haunches. At her dock. And tail. And my...
Her thoughts came to a crashing halt as a hoof struck something, sending her tumbling along the ground, limbs flailing, until she felt a large weight slam into her a split second later.
For the second time that day, she groaned as the world stopped spinning, opening her eyes, expecting to see the sky. But the sky seemed to be golden, and made of hair. She blinked, her eyes settling on Applejack’s face, their muzzles practically touching. He had apparently crashed into her when she fell, ending up on top of her while she lay on the ground, the earth at her back. She tried to push him off with her thankfully free forelegs, and when that didn’t work, she tried to wriggle out from under him as his eyes slowly opened, but could not even make him budge.
Strong.
She blew a bang of hair out of her eyes, glaring at Applejack as his gaze latched onto hers. “This is all your fault!”
Applejack’s eyebrows shot up as he processed Rainbow’s words. “What? How’d you figure that nonsense!”
“You distracted me!” Rainbow growled, leaning her head forward until their foreheads met. “I felt you staring! I saw where you were looking!” she said, a blush forming on her cheeks yet again.
Applejack’s eyes widened in surprise, his own blush matching Rainbow’s. “...Can’t help it, okay?” He said, turning his gaze away. “You’ve been bouncing around all day and every day and Celestia help me I can’t stop watching!”
Honest.
Rainbow felt that her face couldn’t get any warmer. “Y-You’re no better!” She countered, again trying to wriggle out from under the stallion. “You and your stupid legs and your stupid bulging sweaty muscles...” Okay, she was wrong. Her face could get warmer, she realized, as it struck her just what she’d said. Her hooves flew to her mouth, but it was already too late. Mortified, she moved her hooves to her eyes, desperately hoping that she could avoid the world if she hid.
Sadly, the world would have none of that nonsense. Rainbow felt a hoof push both of hers away, but kept her eyes squeezed shut. She was deaf to the world, feeling only his breath, the beating of his heart against her chest. Her eyes slowly opened, locking onto the green ones staring at her, full of concern. Not a single word was uttered, but volumes were spoken, their eyes telling more than their voices could.
Heeding some unheard signal, they both pushed their muzzles forward simultaneously, their lips meeting in a forceful clash that left their minds reeling. Dash’s head tilted to the side, her mouth opening to let his tongue in. She wasn’t disappointed, as she felt it eagerly explore her mouth. Not backing down, she pushed it out with her own, exploring his mouth in turn.
They parted, their breathing ragged as they looked at each other once more. She could still see the concern in his eyes, but it was now buried behind something else. Something more. But it was still there, a fact reinforced as he spoke.
“Dash...” he breathed. “What are we doing?”
She grinned, her smile sly. “I think we both know what we’re doing!”
He shook his head. “No, I mean... Are you sure about this?”
Dependable.
If she had doubted her reaction during that sleepover, she certainly didn’t anymore. The way she thought about Applejack, the way she felt about her friend. She knew now it was all real.
It had been startling to discover that everything Rainbow wanted had been right next to her the entire time. It had been even more startling to hear Applejack use traits describing Rainbow herself as the farmer’s ideal.
But she’d kept those thoughts, those hopes to herself. They had all talked about their perfect stallions, not mares. She hadn’t wanted to jeopardize her friendship with Applejack over what could potentially be a really awkward question. It was safer to assume the farmer was straight as an arrow.
The Zap Apple, however, had completely blurred the lines. Right now, it wasn’t two mares. It was a mare and a stallion. However odd the entire situation might be, this was perhaps Rainbow’s only chance at something ‘normal’ with Applejack.
And she wasn’t going to let this chance slip out of her hooves.
She nodded, her eyes half lidded as she wriggled beneath him, eager to feel his coat, his skin, and the muscles underneath up against her own. She couldn’t hide the hunger in her voice. “Just shut up and let’s do this!” She said, before leaning in to kiss Applejack once more.
They quickly broke off the kiss, desperate to explore the rest of each other. Applejack buried his muzzle in Rainbow’s mane, pressing it against the nape of her neck. She felt him take a deep breath, savoring her scent as he bent closer to nip at the skin. She groaned as she felt his teeth, the sensation sending tingles all over her body, and playfully bit an ear that came too close to her mouth.
Applejack eased himself off of her body as he placed kisses on her chest, down to her stomach. Rainbow arched her back, lifting herself towards him in an effort to stay as close to his lips as possible. Her wings, no longer trapped by the ground, spread open wide with a quiet pomf. Taking notice, Applejack stopped his flurry of kisses to move back up Rainbow’s body, his lips hovering above her coat, just barely out of reach.
Feeling him so close drove Rainbow crazy, her tail flicking wildly. “Why did you sto-” She gasped as she felt a tongue lick the margin of her wing, tracing it to the wingtip. Her breath came in short pants as the tongue made its journey, her brain and body barely able to keep up with the lightning coursing through her nerves, her heart beating wildly.
She twitched as she felt teeth touch one of her primary feathers, lifting a hoof to Applejack’s head. “W-wait...” she breathed, barely able to speak.
Applejack stopped immediately, concern back in his eyes. “What’s wrong?”
Rainbow sagged back onto the ground, quivering slightly as she fought to regain her breath. “Preening’s... t-too risky right now. Too sensitive.” She grinned as she lifted his head back towards her chest with her hoof. “I’ll teach you later.”
Applejack grinned, leaning back up to kiss her. “I’ll hold you to that,” he whispered as they parted once more. He resumed his journey downwards along her body, leaving no doubt as to what his destination was. She felt each kiss, her tail thrashing more violently as he approached her hot, quivering marehood.
Rainbow moaned loudly as she felt his tongue reach her parted lips, licking the sensitive skin. Had she not been on her back, she didn’t think she would still be standing; as her hind legs were quivering from his touch. With more strength than she thought she still had, she pushed herself up, her forelegs reaching for his head. She slipped her hooves through his mane, pushing him further between her legs.
He replied eagerly, digging his snout into her marehood, pushing her folds apart. His tongue danced across her inner walls, sending the waves of pleasure rocketing to her brain. Soon, her hooves weren’t pushing him, but instead were hanging on for dear life. Sensing her approaching release, Applejack tilted his head upwards, his tongue escaping from her entrance and instead flicking the sensitive nub.
Rainbow’s moans doubled in volume, her entire body shaking with the explosive orgasm. She kept her arms around his head, bending over him in an effort to not collapse back onto the earth as he kept licking her clit. Each touch jumped straight to the back of her mind, her entire body twitching in response, her wings flaring outwards, only to relax momentarily until the next touch.
Soon, she sagged onto his head, her strength completely spent. She fought to slow her breathing, attempting to return it to normalcy. She barely registered the fact that Applejack had lifted her off the ground entirely, her body draped on top of his head as he carried her with little effort.
The swaying motion cleared her mind quickly, causing her to lift open her eyes and look around. She noticed how Applejack was moving off the path, closer to the trees that surrounded them. She twisted on top of his head, easing her haunches onto his withers with a wet squelch. She rested her elbows on his head as she leaned against his neck, bending her own so that her eyes were level with his, if upside down. “Hey, where we going?”
Applejack grinned as he flicked his gaze towards the closest tree. “To round two. You up for it?”
Without waiting for an answer, he bent down, lowering his neck so Rainbow could slide off, leaving his withers significantly damper than they had been moments ago. Standing on still shaky legs, Rainbow wordlessly looked around, wondering just what her Applejack’s plans were. “What are y-” she began, but ground to a complete halt as she felt a sharp tug.
For the second time that day, Applejack had pulled her tail. She stared at him, her mind utterly blank. “Eyes ahead, missy!” He growled playfully, yanking her tail again. A squeak escaped her lips, as she stood straight, staring at the bark of the tree she had been deposited in front of. She couldn’t think, only listen, as he let her tail go, only to nip at her haunches. She jumped, utterly powerless to resist, even if she wanted to. She felt a hoof touch her back, gently pushing down until her knees were bent, leaving her pert ass in the air, her tail lifted so high the tip was now brushing her croup.
She knew what was coming next, and still gasped in shock and excitement as she felt the weight of his body settle on her. A thick, pulsating warmth touched her coat, and she twisted her head to get a first look at Applejack’s new equipment. It stood erect, completely out of its sheath, the pink skin a sharp contrasting against the orange coat. It was long, thick, and flared out at the tip.
And it would be inside her soon.
Her wings flared out once more, quivering in anticipation. Eventually, after a few missed attempts she chalked up to inexperience, she felt his rod touch her marehood. Her entire body quivered, then shuddered as he finally pushed into her. A throaty growl escaped from her mouth, as she clenched around his cock, her insides slick. Rainbow had come the moment she’d been entered, still sensitive from her previous orgasm. She gasped as his hips continued to push forward, filling her up until the tip touched her womb.
She felt filled. Stuffed. Impaled, even. She could feel Applejack in his entirety, the walls of her pussy clenching against the fat hard-on inside her. And then, he pulled back. The reversed friction against her insides felt like fire in her veins, leaving her an open-mouthed mess on the ground, a puddle of drool oozing from her lips.
Rational thought, or any thought at all completely vanished as Applejack pushed in once again, slowly building up a rhythm as he pumped into her. She squeaked, she moaned, she might have even screamed. She didn’t know anymore, only focused on the cock inside of her. The sensory overload was just too much, and was made worse by Applejack’s ever increasing pace. His hips slapped against her rear as he pushed himself to the hilt, his balls nudging against her pussy as they strived to push their bodies closer.
She was barely conscious of the signs, as her body reached a climax for the third time that day. She’d have screamed in ectasy had she been able, but her throat was raw, parched. She’d shouted herself hoarse. Her eyes rolled back in her head as the stallion gushed inside her, filling her until the come squeezed out of her pussy, dripping onto the ground.
Rainbow passed out, finally giving in as the stallion fell to the ground beside her, still buried within her. They lay together, dead to the world but for each other.
One eye slowly opened as Rainbow returned to the land of the living, or at least, the land of the conscious. She didn’t know how long she’d been out, and frankly didn’t care. Normally, passing out would be something to hide, never to be told. But she’d passed out after the most mind bendingly great orgasms she’d ever had, from enjoying the whole thing so much even she had been unable to take it.
Yeah. Considering how awesome it had been? Passing out wasn’t a big deal.
As she once more became aware of her surroundings, she tilted her head towards the body that lay on her, smiling at the blonde tail, the apple cutie mark, and the orange coat of the mare lying on top of her.
Mare?
Rainbow’s eyes widened as she took in the sight before her. The effects of the Zap Apple had apparently faded, returning Applejack to her original form. The farmer opened her eyes, locking onto Rainbow’s before the pegasus had the chance to think about the situation.
Applejack grinned as she pulled herself up. “Howdy.”
“H-hi!” Rainbow squeaked, grinning. So far, so good; Applejack wasn’t reacting weirdly. “Um. Welcome back?” She asked, pulling herself into a sitting position.
The farmer tilted her head in confusion. “Eh?” She looked at her body, which Rainbow had pointed at. “Huh. Guess so!” She turned back to the pegasus and grinned. “I’m back!”
Rainbow fought to keep the smile on her face, hoping Applejack wouldn’t notice how tremulous it was, hoping she could mask the worry she felt. Unfortunately, the earth pony knew her, and knew her well.
“Dash, what’s the matter?”
Rainbow looked at the ground, unable to look Applejack in the eye. “AJ... did this change anything between us?”
Applejack remained silent for a moment, before letting out a quiet laugh. “I reckon it does, sugarcube.”
Rainbow winced at the words. “H-how?”
“Well, I know how you taste now, and how sensitive your wings are-”
Rainbow’s brow furrowed as she glared at the earth pony, staring into those green eyes. “That’s not what I mean!” she growled, her emotions reaching a peak. “What did this mean? For you? For us?”
Applejack leaned back slightly as Rainbow wheeled on her. “Now hold on there. I was just teasin’.” She put a hoof on Rainbow’s shoulder. “I didn’t think it meant that much to you.”
“It does, AJ.” Rainbow replied. “You do.”
Applejack continued to stare contemplatively at Dash, her silence tearing at the pegasus before the farmer gave voice to her thoughts. “I won’t lie, Dash. You know how bad I am at it.”
Rainbow nodded weakly, sensing where this was headed. Her ears drooped as Applejack kept talking. “I enjoyed that. A lot. And not just because I had stallion-bits between my legs.” She chuckled. “Didn’t hurt though.”
“But...”
“But what?”
“You said you liked stallions!” Rainbow exclaimed, looking away, her eyes stinging.
“When did I-” Applejack laughed as she realised what the pegasus meant. “The sleepover?” She asked, and Rainbow nodded sullenly. “Dash, Pinkie said stallions. I just listed what I like.”
What? Rainbow turned back to the earth pony. “Huh?”
“I believe I said something like this,” Applejack smiled as she pulled herself to her hooves. “Strong, honest, dependable.”
“You...” Rainbow mumbled, a glimmer of hope in her voice.
Applejack nodded. “I also said this.” She said, and began taking a step for each point she made, bringing her closer to Dash. “Strong.” A step. “Chases after their dreams.” Another step. “Loyal.” She whispered, the final step bringing her face inches away from Dash’s own. She then pressed foward, her muzzle pressing against Dash’s in a quiet but passionate kiss, ending entirely too soon for Rainbow’s liking. “Plus,” she said as they broke off. “I think Pinkie meant with a stallion.. not as a stallion.”
Rainbow snorted, then devolved into a series of giggles which turned into full blown laughter, draining all the tension and fear away. She flopped onto the ground, smiling as she stared into the sky. She scooted closer to Applejack as the farmer leaned down next to her, both of them watching the clouds above. Still gazing upwards, she leaned towards Applejack as an idea struck her. “So, how does tomorrow sound?”
“Tomorrow?” The blonde pony turned her head, perplexed.
“Preening lessons.”
Applejack blinked, and let out a loud guffaw. “Deal, Dash. It’s a date.”
